Era: Start as a buyer

Chapter 118 Looking for another venue

I have to buy an electronic scale at a hardware store. I asked about nearby hardware stores. There is a hardware store on the corner of the old street. Because he went with Liu Xiaofei, Luo Cheng dispersed the fog of the street. In this street, Luo Cheng saw several tea sellers, which were good things. In the machinery factory, he saw Director Sun drinking tea, while everyone else drank boiled water.

I went to two or three hardware stores and asked about electronic scales. The cheaper ones cost more than 200, while the better ones cost 300 or 400.

"Boss, can you adjust this scale?"

"Beauty, I can't adjust it here, and I don't know how to adjust it."

In a hardware store, Luo Cheng and Liu Xiaofei chose a scale worth more than 300 yuan, and Liu Xiaofei asked the boss in a joking manner if he could adjust the scale.

The boss will also answer questions. He doesn't say it can't be done, but that it can't be done here and he doesn't know how to do it. A smart person will understand as soon as he hears it. He can't do it here. It doesn't mean that the scale can't be adjusted. He has to find someone else to do it.

But Liu Xiaofei doesn't really want to adjust the scales. Just because she wants to be a profiteer doesn't mean she's up to no good. I just watch videos and always see some anchors making fake scales, which I find quite interesting.

After buying the scale, Luo Cheng and Liu Xiaofei went back directly. Liu Xiaofei was still thinking about going shopping on Renmin Middle Road in the afternoon. Luo Cheng said she was looking to see if there was any route to avoid the traffic police, but in her eyes, she was just going shopping.

Liu Xiaofei didn't eat out because the low-end ones were afraid of being unhygienic, but she wouldn't be willing to spend Luo Cheng's money on the high-end ones. What's more, there were leftover loaches at home that Luo Cheng sold in the morning. They were all quite fat. She really wanted to eat them.

At noon, Luo Cheng was processing the loach, and Liu Xiaofei was preparing the ingredients for stir-fry. When I came back, I bought some garlic and chili peppers at the market. Today Liu Xiaofei is going to make stir-fried garlic loach.

Liu Xiaofei first briefly fried the prepared loach until it was seven-cook, then removed the pan and set it aside, and then added the ingredients with oil to create the aroma. Put the oiled loach into the pot, add some cooking wine and beer and cook until cooked.

Luo Cheng didn't expect that the loaches fed to ducks in his time could be so fragrant. But looking at Liu Xiaofei's method, people in the city are reluctant to use so much oil to prepare a dish. These seasonings, side dishes, and oils are all above the value of the loach. In my era, unless the chefs in some restaurants would make it like this.

Before the meal, Liu Xiaofei took a photo of the prepared loach and sent it to WeChat.

‘I changed my career to selling loach and eels. It’s really painful to think about eating this every day in the future~~~. Garlic loach, fragrant. ’

Send a message to a friend circle, and the two of them will have dinner. We agreed that we would go out after lunch, but it was too hot at noon.

While eating, Liu Xiaofei was still looking at her phone to see if anyone had replied to her WeChat Moments. Sure enough, she showed off her nakedness in disguise, which made her best friends jealous. But after seeing one comment, Liu Xiaofei put down her phone and went to eat in peace.

A good friend replied with a rather dirty word, related to eels. It seems that I have to break up with this best friend. I am a little fairy and I can't understand what my best friend says. But when I saw Luo Cheng who was quickly picking up rice, I was really annoyed by the thought that I couldn't help but learn some moves from the video this morning.

After the meal, the two of them really just rested in the room for an hour or two, lying together and doing nothing. The sun was still very bright outside, so Liu Xiaofei went out holding a parasol.

It was the first time for Luo Cheng to see an umbrella under the sun. However, considering that Liu Xiaofei's skin is so fair, it is indeed impossible not to pay attention to this.

It doesn't matter where you go outside. What matters is that you have someone to accompany you when you go shopping. Luo Cheng is exploring the road, and Liu Xiaofei is shopping, killing two birds with one stone. It’s just that if she wasn’t going shopping, Liu Xiaofei wouldn’t have the tenacious energy.

"Luo Cheng, I can't walk anymore, please carry me."

After exploring two streets near Renmin Middle Road, Liu Xiaofei didn't want to leave and wanted to take over. From Luo Cheng's point of view, he hadn't walked very long at all. In his own time, Damao and the others could have walked better than her.

But there was no other way, so Ruth continued to explore, and by the way, more fog began to clear up. But when I saw a milk tea shop on the street, I stopped to buy milk tea. When I saw a sugar cane seller, I bought one for ten yuan a pop. Luo Cheng would not buy it if he saw this.

Especially when he saw roasted sweet potatoes, they cost four or five yuan per pound. In his time, these were not even considered whole grains, but miscellaneous grains. A smaller sweet potato weighs more than a pound and a half and costs six or seven yuan. Luo Cheng felt that the sweet potato seller had something wrong with his scale.

But Liu Xiaofei was happy. You would take a sip of milk tea and I would take a sip of it. If she couldn't eat the sweet potato, she would feed it to Luo Cheng. As for money, just go back to your own time and catch some loaches and eels. If you're happy, there's nothing you can't bear to do, and it's not like you can't survive with just this little money.

An 18-year-old girl in this era, if she has no pressure in life and no desire for money, will be as happy as a child.

With Renmin Middle Road as the center, Luo Cheng almost turned around in a big circle. Without Liu Xiaofei to waste time, he could actually visit many places. But that's enough. The route is familiar. It just depends on whether there will be traffic police on another route after the next delivery. This means that what he sells has no cost to him. Otherwise, if he catches it casually, he will be gone for fifty. If it is needed elsewhere in the future, the fine will be quite large for one day.

After returning home from shopping, Liu Xiaofei did not give up on live streaming just because she agreed to sell eels and loaches to Luo Cheng in the morning. If she wants to accumulate popularity, she might become popular by chance and earn tens or hundreds of thousands with just one shipment. Then wouldn't she be prosperous?

Luo Cheng took advantage of her live broadcast in the room and took a stroll to the old street. He ordered fifty steamed buns, bought some cold dishes and secretly put them under the bed in the room.

You have to rent a special place to store things to be safe. Then even if you bring things from your own time every few days, no matter how large the quantity is, at least you won't be afraid of being discovered.

In the evening, during dinner, Luo Cheng brought this matter up with Liu Xiaofei. He said that his friend would pay for it, find a place to store things, and even buy a freezer.

The money from selling things was all in Liu Xiaofei's mobile phone. Luo Cheng did this because he wanted to use half of his so-called "friends".

Luo Cheng ate dinner alone. Liu Xiaofei wanted to stay in shape. In the afternoon, she ate roasted sweet potatoes, snacks, milk tea and other things. There are still some strawberries bought in the morning at home. She will be fine if she eats some strawberries. She will not eat anymore.

Liu Xiaofei ate strawberries while watching Luo Cheng eat, and then looked at the buckets and basins placed in the living room. I figured it wouldn't be a waste of my own money anyway, so I would just find a garage to put it in.

After the meal, the two of them sat together and searched online to see if there was a suitable garage or a cheap house on the first floor nearby. Now that the real economy is in recession, there is a lot of information about vacant houses online. There are many private houses for rent between this old street and the community, and one house caught Luo Cheng's attention.

There is a house for rent with a small yard. There is no decoration inside the house and it is relatively old. It was previously rented to a courier to store parcels, but now they find it too small and have moved to another location.

Except for an ordinary bed, there is no mattress, like a bed board. Without air conditioning or water heater, a house like this costs RMB 800. I asked Liu Xiaofei to call and ask if it was rented out and if the price could be reduced.

The result was that it was rented but not rented out, but the price should not be less. A renovated garage nearby can be rented for 700. Although there is no decoration in her place, if she stays there for a long time, she can find someone to buy an air conditioner and water heater. The room will be simple and tidy. The house is much larger than the garage, and there is a yard to store things.
